Abstract
The portal of Willingboro is a unique portal designed as a means of all arthroscopic biceps tenodesis for biceps tendinopathy. The portal allows for tenodesis to be efficiently and effectively performed in the subgroove space with low technical demand. This Technical Note provides detailed descriptions of the anatomical structures and standard shoulder arthroscopy portals relevant to the location of the portal of Willingboro. The structures discussed include the standard anterior, posterior, and lateral shoulder arthroscopy portals along with the axillary and musculocutaneous nerves, subscapularis and pectoralis major tendons, axillary artery, and major bony anatomic landmarks of the shoulder region. These descriptions may be used as a guideline or reference for safe creation of the portal of Willingboro.
